To clarify the no air condition, not many places in Germany have air conditioning, however, the room was very comfortable. Large windows to open (very common in Germany) with nice breeze.
Beds were comfortable, room was very clean, bathroom was very clean also.
Hotel has a restuarant that serves a great breakfast, with traditional German sevings as well as typical...

In both ways it was a warm experience: professional and kind receptionists and staff, clean rooms and good breakfast. But the rooms were not air conditioned, only some ventilation present. Although it was just a bit over 20 C outside, the rooms were too warm. The only cool place was the pool, that was nice and big enough.

This hotel offers enough to make it a really good hotel. We always forget to make use of all facilities and thus felt like a good normal business hotel. However, the place has a pretty ok pool with sauna, as well as a very fashionable pub-style bar and a good breakfast area. If you stay a week in Detmold, it...

We were delighted to find our room was spacious and included a balcony with a view of the Allstadt. The beds were comfortable and the room was quiet. After a long drive to get there we were happy to enjoy some refreshments (thanks to a 2 for 1 deal at the bar) on our balcony, despite the less than perfect...

Think last review was on wrong hotel as Waiters were women. Lovely hotel nice food good bar and swimming pool too. Always a plus
Plenty of shopping to be done and a great night out bowling its just next door. Nothing too much trouble at hotel fab room with large balcony.

This place was a dive. The waiters were perverts and were checking out my 13 year old niece. There was nothing to do and the drinks were watered down. DO NOT GO HERE!!!! Also the plates in the bar were disgusting

Good location, clean rooms and careful staff. The hotel has a swimming pool and a sauna. It would b nice to find a mini bar in a four-star hotel. Also it is very inconvenient to have one internet access in a double room.

We booked the Residenz Hotel since our favorite hotels in Detmold and surrounding were fully booked. It was a mistake.
We booked a first class room, since it was advertised as the best and largest rooms they have.
Well just the balcony was large, the room was very small and the bathroom was so small that it was impossible to...

We tried to figure out, when you have been our guest, so that I could talk to my team, who was in serivce during your stay, about your complaint. Unfortunately we couldn't find your booking and even our room divisions manager didn't find a matching occupancy during the...

We stayed here two nights and were thrilled by the cleanliness, convenient location, and friendly staff. Check-in was efficient and friendly. The lady kindly directed us to a shopping/dining area just a short walk behind the hotel and to sightseeing attractions within walking distance. The room was spotless and well-appointed, and the beds were comfortable. Although our room faced the...

Stayed one night last week, very nice clean room and friendly staff. Payed extra for breakfast and was okay. The hot stuff had been hanging around for awhile they did make fresh eggs but the bacon and sausage had been there too long and was cold. Not everyone is on business and has an early start.
Had a lovely swim...

The stylish BEST WESTERN Residenz Hotel Detmold is located in the middle of the historic Old Town, with its traditional half-timbered houses and the royal palace. Sights to see in the area include the Externsteine, strange sandstone formations whose past is wreathed in myths, at the heart of the Lippe region. The Hermann Monument high on the Grotenbrug in Hiddessen, the Westphalian Open-Air Museum and the Teutoburg Forest are all quite near. After a busy day, relax in the spacious pool and set the mood for the evening with an excellent cocktail from the hotel’s Hero’s Bar....more less
